Default Nismo tires
I have 08 Nismo and Im trying to change the tires on it, but the thing is that I was wondering which size should I get in order to have that stretched look on it. The tires that they have right now are 245/40/18 front, and 265/35/19 back. Can I use 245 in the back?? Please help me, and thank you in advance.

Default What tires do you have?
My RE05's (OEM) are getting long in the tooth. I currently am planning on getting RE11s. But I thought I'd see what you guys have on your nismos.

Toyo T1R & Michelin Pilot Sport PS2. Great tires but a bit pricey.

The Michelin's have pretty crappy have a pathetic 220 treadwear.

Lots of tire recommendations in the tire forum. Nothing unique about the NISMO. Tires is tires.

NOTE: THe 350Z NISMO IS unique. THe tires are not.

LOL...No bro, I think he was saying that there are plenty of threads dealing with tires. Tires have the same effect for other z's as they do for nismo z's. That is all.
